Mariam $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello, I come from a big family, I have six siblings and have played a role in taking care of them as I’m the oldest! I’m very flexible with my schedule, however, I do have a current part time job that fluctuates. But, I’m more than willing to find a compromise! I’ve babysat numerous children that have different personalities; so it’s very easy for me to adapt! I can help with homework, reading, and any activities that are needed. For senior related care, I’m able to help with grooming, cleaning, groceries, and most important; companionship! I love communicating and having a conversation!

Kailyn $20 per hour for 1 child

Kailyn , from Prior Lake Hi! I am 18 and graduated highschool in january 2024. I am now in school to be a Radiologic Technologist! I am a very reliable, patient, and creative person who has approximately 6 years of experience caring for children, from infants to 12 years. I have had my license for 3 years with a clean driving record. I can help with light housekeeping, cooking, some carpooling, small errands. With me, your children will receive appropriate care, and I'm willing to do additional other tasks if requested. Personally, I'm a planner and a hard worker. I love to be outside and have fun! With all my skills and experience, I'm able to provide a supervised, safe, and stable environment for your little ones.

Chelsea $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Chelsea! I’m a reliable, kind-hearted caregiver with years of hands-on experience caring for children and pets. With two boys of my own, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust to keep your children safe, happy, and cared for. I’m available for evenings and weekends, including date nights — whether you need a quiet dinner out, time to run errands, or extra help. My boys do not come with me when I work with families, which means your child always has my full attention while you’re away. My approach is loving, calm, and flexible — but also fun and a little silly when the moment calls for it! I enjoy making kids laugh, being playful, and turning everyday moments into positive experiences. I love planning age-appropriate activities and am just as comfortable helping with meals, light tidying, homework, and bedtime routines as I am reading stories, crafting, and playing games. I’m also pet-friendly and have experience caring for family pets, plus I have a cat of my own named Gizmo who keeps life entertaining! Families describe me as dependable, consistent, and easy to work with. My goal isn’t just to “watch” your child — it’s to give you peace of mind and make your child’s time enjoyable. I’d love the opportunity to connect and learn how I can support your family, and I’m happy to provide excellent references upon request following a phone interview.
